Not exactly a hot take, but reading this invokes a similar feeling as reading a hot take

That's a lot of words to say literally nothing

The "anti-imperialist" insistence on apologism and denial for any anti-American dictator in the world has everything to do with why the PSUV regime and its occupation of the Venezuelan government in defiance of the legitimate elected president Juan Guaidó has any foreign supporters left at all. Kneejerk support for anyone who will say "America is the Great Satan" and prop up Russian and Chinese interests in the Western Hemisphere is the only thing worth discussing - certainly there is no valid debate about "are these people REALLY starving, is it perhaps ACTUALLY GOOD to send death squads door to door" between rational, moral people.

Hot off the presses of the D&D Venezuela thread.

Hi hot takes thread.

Question: what is the evidence for Soviet maliciousness causing the Holodormir? What's the evidence that it was caused by kulak fit-throwing and western blockades?

Literal Ukrainian fascists that fought for nazi Germany said it happened intentionally and now their descendants and Neonazis repeat such as fact. That's all there is to it.
